One day after Hamas announced it had accepted a ceasefire with Israel to end the 15-month war Hamas launched on October 7, 2023:

“We will continue to monitor developments in Palestine during the three days prior to the entry into force of the Gaza agreement. If the Israeli massacres continue, we will continue our operations. At any stage in which the aggression retreats from the agreement, we will be ready to provide military support to our Palestinian brothers.” “Yemen’s Houthis to continue attacks if Gaza ceasefire breached,” Reuters, January 16, 2025, https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/yemens-houthis-continue-attacks-if-gaza-ceasefire-breached-2025-01-16/.

“We are preparing to carry out more impactful and effective attacks that Israel and the United States will not anticipate.”“Yemen: ‘We are preparing to carry out more impactful and effective attacks that Israel and the United States will not anticipate,’ the Houthi leader affirmed,” Yemen Online, January 16, 2025, https://www.yemenonline.info/politics/8585.

“The death of more captives at the hands of their army confirms the failure of [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu’s theory of freeing the captives by force, and that military pressure does not free his hostages, but kills them. Netanyahu is directly responsible for the death of dozens of the captives because he failed to reach an agreement. There is no alternative to stopping the aggression, withdrawal of the occupation forces, and [reaching] an exchange deal.”“Death of Israeli captives proves failure of Israel’s use of force to free them: Hamas,” Middle East Monitor, December 5, 2024, https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20241205-death-of-israeli-captives-proves-failure-of-israels-use-of-force-to-free-them-hamas/.

“Since the beginning of this genocide, Hamas has publicly announced and been active in seeking a permanent ceasefire to end the Israeli aggression against our people; a deal which would have included a full prisoners’ exchange. However, Netanyahu has sabotaged all these attempts. At many times, we were extremely close to signing on a deal, but due to his savage actions and decisions, these deals broke down.”Tom O’Connor, “Hamas Hits Back at Trump's ‘Hell to Pay’ Threat,” Newsweek, December 3, 2024, https://www.newsweek.com/hamas-hits-back-trump-threat-1994943.
